Olly Murs

X Factor semi finalists Danyl Johnson and Olly Murs have reportedly given up on winning this year’s X Factor.

The pair are said to be struggling to learn the winner’s song, Hannah Montana’s The Climb and are convinced that Simon chose it for either Stacey Solomon or Joe McElderry.

A show source told The Sun: “Olly and Danyl have just given up on winning now. They have thrown in the towel.

“They hate the song so both of them just look defeated.

“They realise Simon now wants Joe and Stacey in the final based on the winner’s song as it only really suits them.”
